An additional Gibbs' state for the cubic Schrödinger equation on the circle. (Q2710690)

The paper gives the construction of the second invariant Gibbs' state for the cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation on the circle. The Gibbs' state is constructed from an integral of motion of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation. This state is singular with respect to the Gibbs' invariant state constructed out of the basic Hamiltonian [see \textit{J. Bourgain}, Commun. Math. Phys. 166, 1--26 (1994; Zbl 0822.35126), \textit{H. P. McKean}, ibid. 168, 479--491 (1995; Zbl 0821.60069), ibid. 173, 173 (1995; Zbl 0838.60058)].NEWLINENEWLINEThe approach employs the Ablowitz-Ladik system, which is a completely integrable discretization of the cubic Schrödinger equation. The basic idea is that, in a certain sense, the Ablowitz-Ladik flow converges to the nonlinear Schrödinger flow, and also the Gibbs' state for the Ablowitz-Ladik system converges to the derived Gibbs' state for the Schrödinger equation.
